Lottie breaks off her engagement to her unreliable fiancé
who badly lets her down just before their wedding. Knowing that there will be a
media interest in her doing so, regarding her being a Lady and her place in
society, she flees to Tything Manor in
Northumbria, her best friend Sophie’s home and a place where Lottie had
spent a lot of her time growing up. It
was a place that always made her feel safe.
With Christmas approaching and with Sophie not able to come
and stay with Lottie at the manor, Lottie finds herself staying with Sophie’s
older brother Rafe. Rafe is reserved and
aloof and comes across as being anti-social, but when they find that Rafe has
to go ahead with traditional Christmas festivities at the manor in Sophie’s
absence, they soon throw themselves into organising and preparing for these
Christmas events.
Soon they find themselves drawn together, but can shy Rafe
share his feelings with Lottie before she returns home to London?
I really enjoy books by Nell Dixon and I really liked this
one. I liked how Rafe differs from the
usual romantic hero breaking the usual stereotypes. I really enjoyed the
romantic storyline, set at Christmas time and the wonderful way the story is
written, making me not want to leave my warm cosy chair by the Christmas tree.
